PostgreSQL for E̶v̶e̶r̶y̶t̶h̶i̶n̶g̶ Industrial IoT Data

Industrial IoT (IIoT) is a rapidly growing sector that applies IoT technology in industrial settings to improve efficiency, productivity, safety, and operational insights. As more companies use IIoT data in critical applications, the segment is expected to grow significantly by 2032. However, developers building IIoT applications face challenges such as analyzing and storing timestamped sensor data with other relational data without relying on multiple databases and complex data stacks. PostgreSQL can simplify this process by efficiently handling both time-series data and traditional relational data in a single database, allowing for the use of SQL across all data types, processing billions of data points with ease, and reducing storage costs through compression and tiered storage mechanisms.
